Pros
(1) Innovation built around consumer insights. (2) Large brands that make selling easier. (3) Operational excellence (so much so that pebbles become priorities over boulders).
Cons
PIE (performance —> image —> exposure) culture turns into managers managing their image over performing. It is common to see and hear managers protecting their back over taking accountability for their lack of development or support in an individual. In return, the individual prioritizes managing their image to appear as though they perform. The result is an organization of people who focus on competing with one another’s image/exposure more than P&G’s actual competition. The end outcome is missed productivity and output to provide a stronger return for the shareholder. Survey your employees and ask how they feel instead of making decisions based on how high-level leadership would want it based on their own personal opinion.
